2 thoughts on “Blogger Etiquette – To Delete or Not To Delete?”

If a blogger is really, really wrong in a spectacularly public way, it is best to cross out the mistake or post a mea culpa. On the other hand, if no one even read the post, or if it was just a typo, spelling mistake, or factual error, why not correct or erase it? I’ve made my share of blog posts which I later regretted. But that comes with the territory. If you wish to have edgy content and be current, it is natural that sometimes mistakes will occur. The immediacy of blogging as an expression of thought gives it its value, but is also its Achilles heel. It’s just something we have to live with.
